Cincinnati’s Best Places to Work in 2016

Posted November 28th, 2016

The Cincinnati Business Courier announced the winners of its annual “Best Places to Work” awards celebration last week. Finalists from all over the city gathered at Xavier University’s Cintas Center to celebrate, but not every company won. We’ll quickly link the winners below.

Before we do, we covered accolades like this in a recent post about ways to vet a company before accepting an offer. While impressive, they should never be your only due diligence before accepting a company’s offer. They do however make for good evidence to consider after you’ve spoken to someone who works there. If an employee’s referral is positive, and the company is winning awards like these, it’s probably a pretty nice place to be for 40 hours or more every week.

Many of these Cincinnati businesses are relatively new to the scene and haven’t made much noise in the past. So if you’re considering a career move in the future, you’d be doing yourself a disservice to leave these companies off your search. Some of them definitely deserve your attention, especially for finance and accounting professionals eager to trade in the grind of public accounting.

After all, busy season isn’t so far away.
